Museum of London - What's on in December?

Santa's grotto
Christmas is just around the corner and Santa is busy gathering up those all-important Christmas lists.

Meet the man in red himself and let him know your Christmas wishes when you visit his secret grotto within our recreated Victorian streets – at either the Museum of London or Museum of London Docklands  which will be transformed with festive decorations and the sound of carols. Every child who visits Santa receives a special gift.
